Photographer's Note

I visited a small film festival whilst in Vienna, and part of the festival included this rather exciting lightshow, projected onto the front of the Rathaus (town hall). Tripod was with me, as it was night, so it was relatively easy to capture this slightly surreal image. Quite bright, so only a second's exposure on ISO 100 transparency film, later scanned on a Nikon dedicated film scanner to create a 109mb, 16 bit file.

This is spectacular. And looks like anything BUT a "rathouse" as I guess the Austrians might pronounce it :) It looks all so futuristic and almost abstract. Having been to a similar light show (admittedly in boring old Sydney where the lights were shone onto St Mary's Cathedral) I can testify as to how difficult it is to get a good shot. Your close-up is superb and the quality of the scan is exceptional. Great shot.
